THE NIGHT FOX - lay inwards in the run home and had to be shifted wider near the 175m when an inside runner was crowded for racing room. Stewards questioned driver C Dalgety regarding the tactics he adopted during the running. Mr Dalgety advised the gelding has raced best previously with cover however as the three wide line never became established in the back straight on the final occasion he was forced to improve wide without cover on the final bend. Mr Dalgety added that considering it was the horse's first start back from a spell he was pleased with the effort.
